Both Leo and Orcborg remained silent until the entire table was filled with all the attendees invited to participate in the eting.
Shortly after, a man everyone was really familiar with, especially to Leo, arrived.
It was Elmont!
Unlike everyone whose wearing a black mantle or so kind of attire to help cover their real identities, Elmont was simply wearing the sa exact suit that he has been wearing the mont he stepped inside the ballroom.
Elmont didn't bother changing a thing since there was really no need for him to do so. The reason for that is because practically almost everyone in the Erald Tree Kingdom knows that the Evergreen royal family hated the Naughty Elves organization.
Needless to say about creating an alliance, it wouldn't even be strange for the Evergreen royal family if they actually decided to go into an all-out war against the Naughty Elves organization.
In fact, even the Naughty Elves organization themselves long already knew about the existence of the alliance, it's just that they don't know that many mbers of the alliance yet.
Aside from that reason, it is also impossible for the Naughty Elves organization to slip any of their secret forces in the alliance created by the Evergreen royal family, simply because the requirents to participate is by either getting recomnded by soone who is already part of the alliance or by eliminating a certain amount of mbers of the Naughty Elves organization, which honestly speaking, can't be done by any of their mbers at all, even those with a higher status, as it would instantly cause them to die since that ant betraying the Naughty Elves organization.
Elmont quickly walked towards the chair located in the middle of the wooden table and sat on it.
"Since everyone is already here, then let's begin the eting," Elmont announced. He then continued, "My father, King Elfin the Fourth, is preoccupied with the ball, thus, unfortunately, he can't attend this eting right now. So, he sent here today in his place,"
Hearing Elmont's words, the majority of the attendees imdiately started whispering with one other.
It wasn't really that difficult for anyone to guess what exactly they were talking about. They were simply expressing whether this eting was really that important since King Elfin the Fourth, the founder of this alliance, was absent and had instead rely sent one of his sons, the seventh prince on top of that who has the lowest status amongst the three remaining princes in the Erald Tree Kingdom, to attend.
As if expecting already such a reaction from them, Elmont simply smiled and remained silent in response. He just let them continue and waited by the side until when it would finally be over.
Eventually, one of the attendees, specifically soone who has a fat-looking body, decided to raise his hand and asked, "Is this eting really necessary?"
"Of course," Elmont casually nodded his head in confirmation and didn't bother saying anything more for the sole reason that he could already see from that person's line alone that he still wanted to say sothing.
As expected, the fat attendee indeed continued talking. He said, "I really don't an to be rude to you, your Highness, Elmont, but we have already finished discussing the counterasures against the Naughty Elves organization during our previous eting, right? In all sense, even if we actually have so changes on them, couldn't we just change them during that specific day? I supposed that shouldn't be as much troubleso compared to gathering all of us here today? Especially considering that we should be celebrating tonight, instead of doing sothing like this,"
With a slight frown on his face, Elmont said, "Are you aning to say that we should end this eting right now and continue with the ball?"
"I don't mind you putting it that way, your Highness, Elmont," The fat attendee replied in a vague manner.
All of a sudden, Orcborg stood up from his chair and said, "Let guess, this has got to do with Elmont being here instead of King Elfin the Fourth?"
The face of the fat attendee hidden under the hood of his mantle quickly turned dreadful after Orcborg didn't hesitate to reveal the truth. Of course, everyone already knew the truth even without Orcborg revealing it, even Elmont himself. But, revealing it and not revealing it are two completely different matters. The forr ant disrespecting and offending Elmont, while the latter ant otherwise.
The fat attendee really doesn't understand why exactly Orcborg had done such a thing, when everyone, in fact, has the sa thoughts in mind. In his opinion, shouldn't Orcborg be grateful for him instead since he decided to step up for everyone? What he's doing right now is basically the sa as taking all the bla for everyone. So, the least he could do is to show him so respect, even the smallest amount will do.
Sensing the strong tension in the atmosphere, Elmont finally decided to drop the act and tell the truth. With a firm look on his face, he said, "I fully understand where you are going at, but this is the personal order of my father, King Elfin the Fourth. Anyone who dares to object, would be the sa as objecting to his will, understood?"
Hearing Elmont's words, the fat attendee quickly sat back down on his chair and replied, "I understand, your Highness, Elmont,"
"Good," Elmont nodded his head. He then turned to look at the others and said, "If anyone of you also wants to voice your objection, then you are free to leave this place and I will not stop you. But in consideration of you being part of our alliance, I will remind you that you will be explaining the reason for your action to King Elfin the Fourth personally. Every one of you here should be clear by now what that exactly ant,"
Instantly, all the attendees who were on the sa side as that fat attendee decided to put aside their objection.
"Anyways," Elmont quickly changed back to the main topic of today's eting, he continued, "Honestly, the person who will be truly hosting this eting is not . I am simply going to supervise everyone in order to have a peaceful discussion,"
The mont Elmont finished his piece, Elvis imdiately arrived and walked by Elmont's side.
"Let introduce this person to everyone," Elmont said as he pointed his hand towards Elvis, "This man right here is one of the closest friends of my father and also the person who contributed greatly during the war against the Naughty Elves organization, Elvis,"
Elvis nodded his head to everyone to greet them, which the others also greeted in the sa manner. The majority of them already recognized Elvis the mont he arrived, so they didn't bother questioning his identity anymore.
After introducing himself, Elvis began talking, "All of you should probably have already known that I was actually kidnapped by the Naughty Elves organization and was just rescued by the Evergreen royal family a few days ago,"
Hearing Elvis' words, Leo and the others from the Mischievous Lion Guild quickly realized that this was deliberately said by Elvis in order to put all the bla on the Evergreen royal family and make the Naughty Elves organization completely focused on them. This line alone will undoubtedly mislead them from suspecting the Mischievous Lion Guild.
"During that ti, I was tortured by them in hopes of making cooperate and give them the information that they really needed. While torturing though, they stupidly divulged plenty of their plans as if they thought that through such threats they can make talk, hahaha," Elvis said before letting out a chuckle. After a few seconds of chuckling, he stopped and continued telling his story, "Completely unaware of what I was really intending to do, I pretended that such a thod had indeed worked on as I have inford them of so useless information from ti to ti,"
"The more I talk, the more information they revealed to . Until eventually, I learned plenty of what exactly they are planning to do during the Erald Elven Battle Competition," Elvis said as his lips slowly ford into a mischievous smile, "By the way, what I really ant about plenty is actually almost everything. That is because the person who was torturing at that ti was soone the majority of people who participated in the war against the Naughty Elves organization in the past should already know,"
"Darfus, Darius' one, and only son!"
As soon as Elvis revealed the identity of his torturer, everyone imdiately irrupted in loud exclamations of shock and disbelief.
Who exactly was Darfus?
It didn't take that long for Elvis to reveal his real identity.
"When we defeated Darius and killed him during the war against the Naughty Elves organization, Darfus, his son, has secretly and successfully escaped away from us. We tried searching for him in both the entire Erald Tree Kingdom and Erald Forest and had even sent so n to our neighboring Kingdoms to find him. But unfortunately, we didn't found even a single trace of him as if this person had actually vanished into thin air,"
"Truthfully speaking, I also have the sa reaction as all of you when I saw Darfus with my own two eyes. I really didn't expect that the person we have been searching for to the point of almost flipping over every stone we see and turning the Erald Tree Kingdom upside down would voluntarily be returned to this territory himself,"
